Can anyone really change? Even if they wanted to? Perhaps, especially if they want to...?
Keep or Change?
For-get/give – lapse in memory or judgment?
Something I've always wondered is why people go back to their ex's. If it didn't work out the first time then why should it the next? Is it an act of desperation or merely selective amnesia? If you or they weren't good enough the first time around, what makes one think they're good enough now?... Continue Reading →
A series of questions
Come one, come all! Come see the spectacle that is K, the Forgotten! A sad girl who you won't feel for as she slips from my/our minds. When one forgets, does that allow to begin anew? Perhaps when one forgets themselves... Does forgetting create an absence of the mind, or is it data overwritten? I'm... Continue Reading →
Attention (semantic) seekers…
You have somebody's full attention! Now, let us shed our ideas of extraversion and introversion and focus on the attention itself. How would you want to be considered in their eyes? Interesting, Intriguing, or Entertaining? Is there is a difference? (Come on, it's me. IMO of course there is.) I've always wanted to be interesting,... Continue Reading →
Preproduction for your biopic! (Can you imagine?)

Junkie’s Addiction – semantics
Splitting hairs in definitions, another J.K. babbling semantic stream. J and I were talking about addiction, and the difference between an addict and a junkie. The difference we came up with was that an addict's addiction doesn't interfere with their ability to function within society, whereas a junkie's addiction does. Bear in mind that addictions...

Rerun 006. The paradox of Empathy and Psychopathy
Is self-care selfish? Can taking advantage of one's empathic nature lead them towards developing antipathy, apathy and then perhaps psychopathy?
Tween girls feel a lot of things.
"It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to one's enemies, and just as much to stand up to one's friends." -Dumbledore.
The sublime divinity of art.
The beginning of an idea of "art as the realm of the gods." Where gods are archetypal representations for inherent and universal human experiences and characteristics.
SeCreation. Sex me precious, I’m a fat bastard.
Narratology as allegory for the human condition.
Go nuts with this hypothetical!
Ok, I want you to think totally outside of the box - or inside of the box if you don't like what's outside the box. This is a glimpse into the sort of conversations my husband and I have at times. If you could have anything - any thing - at all as a possession/pet,... Continue Reading →

Hello Pointless Overthinkers. It's me, Kalliope! Did you miss me? Hmm, don't answer that, I'd rather you save your answers for the following morsels of munchable musings... you know they're a real treat, coming from the chief muse herself.

I encourage you... Continue Reading →
Rerun 003: I am vague because I am endless — Modern Mystic Mother
14 August, 2018. I am a lot of things. Mostly contradictory and complex. It is both a delight and a curse to be me. How I feel about existence really depends on a lot of things that are all temporary and transient. I have a lot of ideas and I struggle to pin down anything […]... Continue Reading →

11th December, 2018. 4:33 am. DM posted a video about making mistakes. The title alone totally TRIGGERED my memory about writing a post about this topic. So I dug around my personal blog archives and dredged this up for you all to bear witness: Why I am the soi-disant EXPERT OF EVERYTHING! Because I am... Continue Reading →
